The calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor (CEOT) is a rare benign odontogenic neoplasm that accounts for approximately 1% of all odontogenic tumors. Its origin is controversial as well as its true malignant potential. A case of an advanced CEOT associated with an impacted right second molar in the mandible of a young black female patient is presented. Computed tomography imaging, radiographic and pathological findings, surgical patterns, gross anatomy of the lesion and the performed treatment are discussed.
牙源性钙化上皮瘤（CEOT）是一种罕见的良性牙源性肿瘤，约占所有牙源性肿瘤的1%。其起源以及真正的恶性潜能存在争议。本文报告了一例发生在一名年轻黑人女性患者下颌骨、与阻生右第二磨牙相关的晚期牙源性钙化上皮瘤病例。文中讨论了计算机断层扫描成像、影像学和病理学检查结果、手术方式、病变的大体解剖结构以及所实施的治疗。
